How can I check to see what codes I have entered?

Each time you submit a code, a record of your successful submission appears on the “My Submissions” page. All your entries appear on that page for your information and reference, so you can check the list against the codes you have. If the submission record is there, you can be assured that it is in the system.

What are my chances of winning a prize?

The odds of winning vary based on the total number of entries that are received for a drawing, the total number of prizes awarded for each draw and the total number of entries an individual has submitted.
